> I don’t want to discourage you. More power to you if you want a project, but you may want to stop and think about the extent to which you can make an import fast for cheap. Relatively speaking, you are probably going to go a lot faster in a Chevy for a lot less. I would say most imports without nitrous or turbo/s.c. are not going to run faster than 14’s (and those are the “quick” ones :ugh2:).

I have drivin a civic hatchback to and back from that I had less then $2000 to the track went high 11’s then drove it home. I have done this with 2 different cars too. There isent to many other cars that can do that for as cheap.

As for a yoda, goodluck.
